Cheung Chau is a beautiful, fascinating South China Sea island, in western Hong Kong.
長洲，它是一個美麗、迷人的小島，位於香港的西南面。

It's easily reached from Hong Kong's main business district - fast ferries take just half an hour - yet seems a world away from the skyscrapers and the bustling streets and the traffic. Here on CheungChauHK, you'll find info on touring Cheung Chau, and life on the island. If you join - it's free! - you can comment on articles, post in forum discussions, even add photos to your very own album in the gallery.

要去這小島容易得很，從香港的主要商業區（中環）乘坐快速渡輪僅需半小時而已，只需這樣短的時間，就可以遠離摩天大樓和繁囂的街道。 在這裡長洲HK網站，你可以找到關於小島景點的資料、島上的生活等等。 你可以自由地加入這網站! 你可以在這裡評論文章，在論壇討論，即使加上你自己所拍的照片在照片廊也沒問題！

ACE sub-committee discusses Shek Kwu Chau or Tsang Tsui incinerator plans

Submitted by Martin on Tue, 22/03/2011 - 7:23pm

Yesterday, I was with a small group from Cheung Chau who sat in public viewing room for meeting by EIA sub-committee of the Advisory Committee on the Environment, as they discussed environmental impact assessment for waste incinerator to be sited at Tsang Tsui, Tuen Muen District, or an artificial island to be constructed off Shek Kwu Chau, just west of Cheung Chau. Watched proceedings on a couple of tvs; only public session was presentations, then questions and answers.

Cecil Chao paradise taking shape on Cheung Chau

Submitted by Martin on Mon, 06/12/2010 - 5:25pm

Along Cheung Chau Praya, towards Sai Wan, a housing development is taking shape. Not just any development - this is on land bought in 2007 for a whopping HK$96.5 million by Cheuk Nan (Holdings) Ltd, the chairman of which is Cecil Chao Sze-tsung - who has been described as "extraordinary Casanova, socialite and businessman". Mr Chao has said his company would turn the site into "paradise" - and change the surroundings.

As yet, doesn't look too much like what many people might consider "paradise", but work is ongoing.

Stormy May day on Cheung Chau

Submitted by Martin on Thu, 20/05/2010 - 2:54pm

On 19 May - unluckily, the first day of the Bun Festival proper - storms swept into Cheung Chau from the west. Dramatic, especially as the first thunderstorm arrived, bringing sudden transition from calm, to lashing wind and rain.

Tung Wan Tsai farm

Submitted by Martin on Fri, 04/09/2009 - 9:08pm

A small farm on the northeast tip of Cheung Chau is a fine place to visit, and even seems a surprising place given that the surroundings are uninhabited, with only scrubby vegetation.

Even from close by, it's hidden away, yet proves a secluded, tranquil spot.

As well as wandering around the farm, you can stroll onto and clamber over the neighbouring rocky coastline.
